Using benzaldehydes, NaN(SiMe3)2, and N-acylpyrroles, an operationally simple tandem method to produce a wide array of 3,4-dihydroisoquinolones is presented (37 examples, yields up to 98%). A unique feature of this method stems from the sequential aminobenzylation of aldehydes and transamidation of the corresponding N-(trimethylsilyl)imines in one pot. In this process, three new bonds are generated (one C-C and two C-N bonds).
